Chemical Synthesis, Spectral Characterization and Electrical Conductivity Behavior of Poly(2-Methoxyaniline-Co-2-Chloroaniline) and its CuO Nanocomposite and Polypropylene Glycol Blend
Abstract: AbstractCopolymerization of 2-chloro aniline and 2-methoxy aniline was achieved chemically by oxidative polymerization technique using ammonium persulphate as the oxidizing agent in acidic medium in the presence of sodium lauryl sulphate, an anionic surfactant. Copolymerization was also carried out in the absence of the surfactant to study the effect of surfactant on the thermal stability and electrical conductivity. The copolymer composite with CuO nano particles and blend with poly propylene …

Effect of Fillers on Electrical Conductivity of Epoxy Composites
Abstract: AbstractThis paper reports, electrical conductivity studies carried out on RT cure epoxy resin (LY556+HY951) containing three different particulate fillers graphite (Gr) a soft material, silicon carbide (SiC) a hard material and a hybrid graphite and silicon carbide (Gr-SiC). The weight fractions of three different fillers were varied from 10% to 40 wt% in steps of 10%. Increased filler fraction increases the electrical conductivity of epoxy composites for all the three …

Reinforcement of Natural Rubber with Sisal/Sugarcane Hybrid Nanofiller
Abstract: AbstractNatural fibres are attracting attention from researchers for the manufacture of polymer composites due to their eco-friendly nature and sustainability. The hybrid effects of Sisal/sugarcane Bagasse based nanofiller on the physico-mechanical properties of natural rubber matrix have been investigated. In the experiment, nanofiller were prepared from alkaline-peroxide treated sisal fibre and sugarcane bagasse through shear and friction homogenization. The nanofiller were hybridized using a single ordinate loading of 30 parts …
